Washington Reports Saving $650,000 Annually with Electronic Documents

OLYMPIA, WA—Sept. 29, 2010—The Washington State Department of Revenue has cut its expenses by more than $650,000 annually by shifting from printed paper to electronic documents taxpayers can access online.

“We’ve looked for ways to reduce spending and promote sustainability even before we hit these tough economic times, and using the Internet to interact with our customers has helped immensely,” Revenue Director Cindi Holmstrom said. “We’ve moved to an on-demand system that gives people what they want, when they want it.”
